Fountaindale School has received an award of £600 from The Mansfield Building Society’s Community Support Scheme to cover a staff training course in WATSU; a profoundly relaxing aquatic therapy.

Karen Redgate, of Fountaindale School, said: “We are grateful to The Mansfield for donating these funds. The children benefit greatly from using our pool and this will mean we will have more resources for Saturday swimming sessions.”

The Mansfield’s marketing co-ordinator, Mandy Whitten, said: “We are delighted to be able to help. The school provides a much-needed service for children in the local area.”
